Students can contact SAMMAKKO, if something doesn&#8217;t go as planned, for example in a course, in learning environments or there&#8217;s something in the UAS atmosphere. We provide feedback surveys, collect student experiences and promote student development ideas and suggestions in SAMK and beyond.<\/p>\n<h3>What is student advocacy?<\/h3>\n<p>The statutory task of the student union is to monitor the interests of students in the university. The University of Applied Sciences Act defines that \u201cthe purpose of the student union is to act as a liaison between its members and to promote their societal, social and spiritual aspirations, as well as their aspirations related to study and the student\u2019s position in society\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>Student advocacy at SAMK<\/h3>\n<p>The student union ensures that the voice of the students is heard in the SAMK community. Through the student union, students have, among other things, access to SAMK&#8217;s development groups, some of the management teams and SAMK Oy&#8217;s Board of Directors. In these gatherings, the task of SAMMAKKO members is to bring students&#8217; experiences and views into decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>SAMMAKKO also monitors the interests of students on individual courses and campuses. You can always contact the student union if you suspect that everything is not going as well as it should or there are ambiguities in completing the courses. SAMMAKKO members advise and help in all unclear situations.<\/p>\n<h3>Consultation of students<\/h3>\n<p>The student&#8217;s voice will be heard through the Board of Representatives \u2013 the highest decision-making power of the Student Union \u2013 and the Board of the Student Union elected by the Council of Representatives. Representatives are elected to these SAMMAKKO&#8217;s decision-making bodies by election every autumn. Read more about SAMMAKKO&#8217;s decision-making here.<\/p>\n<p>In order for SAMMAKKO to best promote the status and well-being of students at the university, the student union collects feedback and produces surveys for students annually. Your own development idea or feedback can always be submitted to SAMMAKKO directly or through a familiar member of the Representative Council.<\/p>\n<h3>Advocacy nationwide<\/h3>\n<p>SAMMAKKO is a member of the Finnish Student Union SAMOK ry and the Finnish Student Sports Federation OLL.
